How to wing?

Hey all, I have kind of an unconventional question here.

I have solid game, but I've been in a relationship for three years so it's not something I've gotten much use out of recently. My friend has been pretty beat up about his girlfriend leaving him several months ago and he can't seem to get back on his feet; I've tried winging for him but every time the target ends up coming on to me. He always attracts hot girls- I don't know what it is, he's kind of chubby but they just kind of flock to him, maybe they think he's cute- but he can't seem to make a close.

I can't give specifics from memory, but I do think a big problem is my disinterest is causing attraction in the targets. How does one "turn off" their AMOG tendencies? I guess I can sum it all up like this...

How do I open for him and how do I interact with the target group from that point on? Should I just use a "my friend and I need a woman's opinion, is it okay for men to carry satchels" or something then let him lead the conversation from that point on? (He actually had success once when we were passing a target and I got her attention and said "Hi, have you met my friend?" then just walked away without saying a word.)

I'd be interested in winging for some of my other friends but I don't know if the problem is me or him. I've tried searching the forum, but everything that comes up is "I need a wingman". I want to be a wingman, but I have no idea how. Help!

Sounds like your buddy needs help working on his hooks, how to Get Girls interested

The wings job is multi fold. Just by being such good friends and talking each other up a little / agreeing with each other you make each other look good
But primarily you should be there to distract obstacles.
If its a single set certainly excuse yourself

If there's an obstacle, talk to her. Your boy should really be doing little things like stories jokes or other entertaining things. If he is not then its his fault the attraction drifts to you
All you gotta be careful about is that you don't show much interest in the target and you let him lead the discussion

There are other good things but that's the basics. If you're in a 2 set at some point you can pull the obstacle away - "hey looks like those 2 want a minut" (this works regardless of how well it's going, if you imply it to the obstacle she will believe it. Also whisper it so the target doesn't know why u split she may think its because you want the obstacle which works out for everybody all around)

Just general tips hope they help a little

Quick follow up- your wing needs to be opening if he's selected the target. He needs to be leading. If you open, you are more interesting to the target usually
The Opener of "hey have you met my friend" is the exception. But questions like the satchel should be started and led by him if he wants something
